This 19 year old girl was sent to the back of the viewing audience at a recent taping of American Idol because she was 'too big, too heavy,' The California girls tells a gossip website that when the walked in there was a woman looking them up and down to decide if they were 'suitable' for the front. A man took her ticket and said 'this makes sense why you aren't up front with the skinny girls, get to the back.'

Number one this is outrageous, as you can see in the photo this girl is NOT heavy and isn't this supposed to be a show about talent and not looks and superficial things? Would you stop watching American Idol because you saw this girl in the front row??
